Correctional

Our precast concrete correctional building system is designed and engineered to protect and extend the life of your facility. From simple additions to cluster modules, our precast correctional cells offer unlimited layout choices. Projects that are highly complex and uniquely designed can be constructed on time and in budget.

In a precast concrete cell , a concrete balcony piece is cast as part of the cell module. This way, when the cells are stacked next to each other they create not only a row of housing, but also the tiers that inmates and correctional officers walk on.

A rear chase is added to a precast concrete cell when the facility owner wants the maintenance personal to have access to the mechanical systems without having to disrupt the prison population's daily routines. A rear chase area runs along the exterior back wall of a row of cells. An insulated exterior wall is then constructed to enclose the rear chase area.

:The cell modules may contain two or four cell units, called double and quad modules respectively. A quad module is shown in Figure 4. The module consists of external walls on all sides and a roof slab cast monolithically. Openings for cell doors, embeds and amenities are set at the time of casting. The exterior walls exposed to the weather are insulated. Electrical ducts, plumbing and other mechanical ducts are embedded in the concrete and placed through the triangular chases shared between two adjacent cells. Bunks, toilets and other amenities are fixed to the cells with tamper-proof bolts
